Including filter system and high-performance 1,2,3-Trichloropropane filter.
1,2,3-Trichloropropane is a man-made industrial chemical that can sometimes be found at trace levels in drinking water and can persist in groundwater. Because it has no distinctive taste, smell, or look, the only reliable way to know if it’s present in your Peck water is through proper laboratory testing. Many Peck homeowners prefer a whole-house solution so every faucet, shower and appliance receives the same protection rather than relying on a single point-of-use device.
Seeing 1,2,3-trichloropropane on a water report can be unsettling when you’re thinking about cooking, bathing, or doing laundry in Peck. The positive side is that residential treatment approaches are well established and effective. Choosing the best option depends on your water source and the level indicated, so a professional assessment in Peck will ensure the technology and system size match your household’s needs for reliable performance.
For most homes, the single most effective whole-house filter for 1,2,3-trichloropropane is a granular activated carbon (GAC) bed sized for the residence and installed as a point-of-entry system. GAC removes many organic contaminants by adsorbing them into its porous surface as water flows through. Because 1,2,3-trichloropropane can be more difficult to remove than some other contaminants, the specific carbon type, contact time and flow rate must be matched to your Peck home so the tank performs properly for showers, faucets, appliances and outdoor spigots.
Mr. Pure Water can design and install a whole-house activated carbon system for Peck homes, including appropriate pre-filtration to protect the carbon bed from sediment and maintain steady pressure. Carbon media requires periodic replacement based on water use and contaminant load, so we include a maintenance plan to keep the system working as intended. When installed and maintained correctly, a single GAC whole-house unit delivers treated water to every tap without needing multiple under-sink filters.
